Assuming you’re playing proprietary games, I’m not sure why Steam also being proprietary is a step too far for you.
Anyway if you’re playing games with low enough spec requirements to run on an iGPU, they’ll just run, no extra steps needed. Distro shouldn’t matter either.
By install another distro, I meant install a distro that has a nonfree repo(I’m using pureos), and just boot from a usb. I’m not sure how steam is packaged, but I’d imagine it would go against the point of a distro like pureos.

There’s a flatpak steam package. You could also use distrobox to install containerized packages from other distros.
